Prince Harry was asked if there was a rift between him and Prince William and the father of one replied that they have "good days and bad days."

Despite insisting that they will "always be brothers," Prince Harry said they were on "different paths at the moment."

An end to Prince William and Prince Harry's feud?

It was recently reported that Prince Harry will be taking a trip to Japan to watch the Rugby World Cup Final. A Buckingham Palace statement revealed that Harry, Patron of the Rugby Football Union (RFU), will visit Japan for the 2019 edition of the event taking place on November 2.

The statement seemed to imply that Meghan Markle will not be going with him. In addition, there have been reports that Prince William, also a fan of Rugby, and patron of the Wales national rugby team, will also be traveling to Japan.

Despite their differences, sports seem to be the one thing the brothers have always bonded over. They have both competed in charity sports games, for instance, the King Power Royal Charity Polo match in July.

It is believed that if they do take a trip to Japan this weekend, it can strengthen their solidarity and improve their brotherly bond.

There's hope for the princes

Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell has insisted that Prince Harry and Prince William remain "inseparable."

Speaking to CloserWeekly, Paul said that despite having their differences, they have a bond that was formed at the time of their mother's death and no matter what, the two will still remain connected.

Royal fans are broken-hearted over these reports that the princes aren't getting along. But so far, they have kept hope alive in the knowledge that the situation can change for the better. And if they do take a trip together for the sports games, it may just be the time they need to connect over shared interests.
